In 2003, research conducted by Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization indicated that people with a high intake of citrus-rich fruit - defined as an extra citrus serving daily, in addition to the recommended five servings of daily fruit - were 50 percent less likely to develop mouth, stomach or throat cancer and 20 percent less likely to suffer from a stroke. Both are flavonoids, plant-based chemicals that can prevent DNA damage by inhibiting the activity of free radicals. Hesperidin and naringenin are antioxidant compounds found only in citrus fruit like Cuties.
